In short

How do I track competitor hiring trends automatically?

WebRun checks LinkUp every Monday for job posting activity at the competitors you track, ranks who is hiring fastest, posts the scorecard to Microsoft Teams, and updates a Trello strategy card with the latest numbers. It only reads public posting data, so your strategy team gets a weekly read on competitor hiring without manual searching.

  • Competitor hiring jumps get flagged the same week, not the same quarter
  • Strategy teams see a ranked view without manual searching
  • Every hiring trend lands on one tracked Trello card

Questions, answered

Does WebRun post or apply to any of the roles it finds?

No. It only reads publicly listed posting counts. It never applies, posts, or contacts anyone at the companies it tracks.

How does it decide a posting count jumped sharply?

It compares this week's count against last week's for the same competitor and flags any increase past the threshold you set.

Can I change which competitors it tracks?

Yes. Update the list of companies at any time, and the next Monday's scorecard reflects the new set.
